Fong has been involved in the preclinical and clinical studies with sipuleucel-T (Provenge) and ipilimumab (Yervoy), which are now FDA approved for prostate cancer and melanoma, respectively. Dr. Fong obtained his MD at Stanford University, completed internal medicine training at University of Washington, and an oncology fellowship at Stanford.<\/p>\n<p>This webinar is part of the Cancer Research Institute&#39;s webinar series, &quot;Cancer Immunotherapy and You,&quot; which are offered free to the public and feature informative updates for patients and caregivers from leaders in cancer immunotherapy, followed by a Q&amp;A. This series is presented by Genentech and LabAnswer and its employees, with generous support from Abbvie, Celldex Therapeutics, NewLink Genetics, and Regeneron.
